[OS X TeX] Changing size of tikzfigure figures

[Nitecki, Zbigniew H.]

I am putting together a beamer presentation which incorporates pictures of braids using the braid package.  In this package, the figures are created  using the tikzpicture environment.  These can quickly get too tall for beamer;  when I am simply generating them in a paper, latex seems to take care of the size, but beamer does not—it simply falls off the bottom of the slide.  Is there a way (similar to for example setting units in pstricks) that I can control the height of a tikzpicture so that it fits inside a single beamer slide?
